But what we didn't know is that Sorrentino's father (who delightfully calls himself "The Confrontation") had spoken openly about the problems that have plagued his fist-pumping son, who allegedly first entered rehab two years ago, at age 27.

In a video interview posted on Metacafe.com, the elder Sorrentino says:

“For me, after years of dealing with his addiction, years of dealing with all the bullsh*t, this wasn’t a 16-year-old kid. The guy was a 27-year-old man. I was just hoping he would be able to stand up."

He also described in detail his son's first time dealing with addiction:

"When Mikey was in rehab we found the facility for him in Florida and we brought him down here and did a 7 day dry out period then he went to another facility for 30 days … I did all the leg work in Florida and to make sure he got here and to make sure that we secured a spot because he so desperately needed the help."
